Next week we turn our attention to 90s Wolverine one-shot TPBs!

ICYMI yesterday!

Imagine naming a child Jubilation.

OMG this rules

I think there’s been enough concrete evidence that yes, Marvel was trying to make The Inhumans more popular than the X-Men and diminish the X-Men brand until they gained the film rights. Just like right now we’re in a multi-year holding pattern until an eventual MCU-aligned relaunch.

SFLANG!

I'd love to have some pithy answer for this, but I have no idea how I'd predict something like this and I hate gambling, so 🤷‍♀️ I dunno.

168 is a great pick! This is tough. I generally think in arcs not individual issues generally, so it would have to be from the Paul Smith From the Ashes run. If not 168, I'd probably go with 169-170 or 172-173.

I think it's pretty feasible that Glob Herman is from Jersey.

Healthy answer: Salad with some chicken
Not so healthy answer: Frozen turkey burger with tater tots

Tommy Orz is definitely up there given his superhuman ability to cram Claremont text into any scene. Big fan of Eliopolis’s Simonson inspired sound effects. And for sheer character I love Jeff Smith.

I got HOURS to go here folks - what you got?

Good tip!

Been to Italy twice and both times it was amazing. I'd love to go back some day.

I guess it's back to school for me!

I just read two excellent short stories collections by Bora Chung, Cursed Bunny and the Midnight Timetable. They were both great but I would've read a dozen more volumes set in the weird locale of the Timetable. I love ghost stories and these were fantastic.

First you're gonna need a half dozen eggs, then you're gonna wanna find an open-minded person named Lorraine who knows how to make a quiche. I know it has a crust! And Rat Creatures love it. But really you gotta rely on Lorraine. Sorry I'm not more help, bud.

I love Italy and @annapeppard.bsky.social wants to see Ancient Greek sites, so I think we'd probably lean in that direction first, but I'd love to do all three! Now where do I find these free holidays? 🤔

Oddly enough I don't think we ever even toyed with the idea of anything but Battle of the Atom. We knew what we wanted the premise to be, and Battle had the right ring to it! Of course this was years ago so maybe I'm remembering it wrong. . .

I have thought about this a LOT. There's quite a few mutants who would fit the bill as an odd duo. Three off the top of my head
Prodigy & Leech
Skids & Glob Herman
Thumbelina & Micromax

Damn! This one's tricky. I have to think the answer lies between 1991-1996, the real question is which has the most of my favorite albums. I'm very tempted by 1994, my freshman year of high school. SY's Jet Set, Weezer Blue Album, Downward Spiral, Pisces Iscariot, REM Monster pretty solid year

Alright cool kids! It’s another late night for yours truly which means it’s ASK ADAM TIME! Got Qs? Need advice? Recommendations? Hit me up so I’m not bored!

Gotta say that while I'm thrilled Onion bought it, it does suck to see the branding live on in any way shape or form

Denise is a surpisingly progressive portrayal of a trans character. Plus it leads to a truly classic moment in The Return.

How far are you? You haven't gotten to the Return yet, right?
